Monsieur Coccinelle (1938)
02 Nov 1938 • Comedy • 1h 40m
This Lumbering PreWW2 French comedy has pretensions that it is not really equal to - comments on mindless office routine, incompetent medicine and mean spirited families.Larquey (notable in Le COURBEAU) shares a grim home with his wife and aunt, whose life was blighted when she was refused permission to marry a traveling illusionist. When she succumbs, his identity becomes that of the man whose aunt has died.The budget looks thin and the film craft is crude.The piece survives in a good copy and has some value as an example of the kind of parochial entertainment rarely now shown.
